Ⅰ.阅读理解

(2023·全国甲，D)
Grizzly bears，which may grow to about 2.5m long and weigh over 400kg，occupy a
conflicted corner of the American psyche—we revere(敬畏) them even as they give us frightening
dreams.Ask the tourists from around the world that flood into Yellowstone National Park what they
most hope to see，and their answer is often the same：a grizzly bear.
“Grizzly bears are re-occupying large areas of their former range，” says bear biologist
Chris Servheen.As grizzly bears expand their range into places where they haven’t been seen in a
century or more，they’re increasingly being sighted by humans.
The Western half of the US was full of grizzlies when Europeans came，with a rough number
of 50,000 or more living alongside Native Americans.By the early 1970s，after centuries of cruel
and continuous hunting by settlers,600 to 800 grizzlies remained on a mere 2 percent of their
former range in the Northern Rockies.In 1975，grizzlies were listed under the Endangered Species
Act.
Today，there are about 2,000 or more grizzly bears in the US.Their recovery has been so
successful that the US Fish and Wildlife Service has twice attempted to de-list grizzlies，which
would loosen legal protections and allow them to be hunted.Both efforts were overturned due to
lawsuits from conservation groups.For now，grizzlies remain listed.
Obviously，if precautions(预防) aren’t taken，grizzlies can become troublesome，
sometimes killing farm animals or walking through yards in search of food.If people remove food
and attractants from their yards and campsites ， grizzlies will typically pass by without
trouble.Putting electric fencing around chicken houses and other farm animal quarters is also highly
effective at getting grizzlies away.“Our hope is to have a clean，attractant-free place where bears
can pass through without learning bad habits，” says James Jonkel，longtime biologist who
manages bears in and around Missoula.

解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Grizzly bears...occupy a conflicted corner of the American
psyche—we revere(敬畏) them even as they give us frightening dreams.”可知，美国人对灰熊既
害怕又敬畏，他们的情感是复杂的。故选A。

Species Act.”以及第四段中“Today，there are about 2,000 or more grizzly bears in the US.”可
推知，由于1975年起受法律保护，灰熊的数量有了增长。故选C。
3．What has stopped the US Fish and Wildlife Service from de-listing grizzlies?
A．The opposition of conservation groups.
B．The successful comeback of grizzlies.
C．The voice of the biologists.
D．The local farmers’ advocates.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Both efforts were overturned due to lawsuits from
conservation groups.For now，grizzlies remain listed.”可知，是动物保护组织的反对阻止了美
国鱼类和野生动物管理局将灰熊从濒危物种名单上除名。故选A。
4．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．Food should be provided for grizzlies.
B．People can live in harmony with grizzlies.

B
(2021·新课标Ⅰ，C)
When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America，the skies and lands
were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife.Native Americans had taken care of these
precious natural resources wisely.Unfortunately ， it took the explorers and the settlers who
followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources.Millions of waterfowl(水
禽 ) were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious
sportsmen.Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing
populations，greatly reducing waterfowl habitat(栖息地)．
In 1934，with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act(Act)，an increasingly
concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory(迁徙的) waterfowl and the
wetlands so vital to their survival.Under this Act，all waterfowl hunters 16 years of age and over
must annually purchase and carry a Federal Duck Stamp.The very first Federal Duck Stamp was
designed by J．N.“Ding” Darling，a political cartoonist from Des Moines，Lowa，who at
that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological
Survey.Hunters willingly pay the stamp price to ensure the survival of our natural resources.
About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation
Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge
System—a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to
come.Since 1934，better than half a billion dollars has gone into that Fund to purchase more than 5
million acres of habitat.Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the
most successful conservation programs ever initiated.
5．What was a cause of the waterfowl population decline in North America?
A．Loss of wetlands.
B．Popularity of water sports.
C．Pollution of rivers.
D．Arrival of other wild animals.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and
house the ever-increasing populations，greatly reducing waterfowl habitat(栖息地)．”可知，湿
地丧失是水禽数量减少的原因之一，故选A。
6．What does the underlined word “decimate” mean in the first paragraph?
A．Acquire. B．Export.
C．Destroy. D．Distribute.
答案 C解析 词义猜测题。根据语境可知，画线词所在句与上文形成转折，上文讲到了探险者抵达
北美洲时，这片大陆上充满了各种各样的野生物种，整个大陆生机勃勃。美洲土著居民明智
地照顾着这些宝贵的自然资源，因此画线词所在句应讲述这些资源受到的破坏——探险者
及随之而来的殖民者只用了几十年就将大部分资源破坏，故画线词与C项的意义最接近。
故选C。
7．What is a direct result of the Act passed in 1934?
A．The stamp price has gone down.
B．The migratory birds have flown away.
C．The hunters have stopped hunting.
D．The government has collected money.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly
into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund...Since 1934，better than half a billion dollars has gone
into that Fund”可知，《候鸟狩猎印花税法案》带来的一个直接结果是政府筹到了钱，故选
D。
8．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A．The Federal Duck Stamp Story
B．The National Wildlife Refuge System
C．The Benefits of Saving Waterfowl
D．The History of Migratory Bird Hunting
答案 A

When the Great Backyard Bird Count(GBBC) began last Friday，Steve and Janet Kistler of
Hart County，Kentucky，joined in.They’ve done so every year since the now-global tradition
began 25 years ago.
For Moira Dalibor，who teaches math at a school，this was the first count.She led a group of
students and parents to an arboretum(植物园) for an exercise in data-gathering.They were among
hundreds of thousands of people around the world counting and recording over four days.Last
year，about 385,000 people from 192 countries took part in the GBBC.
This global data goes into the eBird database used by scientists for research on bird
populations，which have declined sharply overall in past decades.It’s part of a rise in “citizen
science” projects in which volunteers collect data about the natural world for use by researchers.
Many birdwatchers use eBird year-round，and it has collected huge amounts of data—often
between 1 million and 2 million bird checklists a month from around the world in the past couple ofyears，says Becca Rodomsky-Bish，the project’s leader at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology，in
Ithaca，New York.“Observing birds is a good way to connect with the natural world.Birds are
everywhere.You don’t have to leave your house.They will come.And they’re charismatic
because they’re fun and interesting to watch.”
This is how it works：Participants watch birds，whether that means looking out of the
window for 15 minutes or taking a longer trip to a nature area.Organizers recommend the Merlin
Bird ID app to distinguish birds by size，shape，song or other characteristics.Many participants
also carry field guides and binoculars(双筒望远镜) along with their phones.They then enter the
findings into the eBird app.Those numbers help researchers track the ups and downs of various
species，which then help determine the direction of conservation efforts.
Dalibor prepared her classes with information about local species and practiced with the
Merlin app.The kids recorded bird sightings with pencils and drawing boards ， and parent
volunteers entered those numbers on phones.
语篇解读 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“后院鸟类大统计”这一活动，这是“公民科
学”项目兴起的一部分，在这些项目中，志愿者收集有关自然世界的数据供研究人员使用。
9．Why did Dalibor lead her students to an arboretum?
A．To do exercise for health.
B．To observe different plants.
C．To practice their math skills.
D．To collect information about birds.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“She led a group of students and parents to an
arboretum(植物园) for an exercise in data-gathering.”可知，达利伯带她的学生去植物园是为
了收集鸟类的信息。故选D。
10．What does the underlined word “charismatic” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A．Attractive. B．Beautiful.
C．Rare. D．Shy.
答案 A
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词的下文“because they’re fun and interesting to watch”可知，
这些鸟应该是很有吸引力、有魅力的，所以可推测画线词与 Attractive的意义相近。故选
A。
11．What can people use the Merlin Bird ID app to do?
A．To record their findings.
B．To identify different birds.
C．To help determine the birds’ habitat.D．To track the ups and downs of various species.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段的“Organizers recommend the Merlin Bird ID app to
distinguish birds by size，shape，song or other characteristics.”可知，人们可以使用此应用程
序来辨别不同的鸟类。故选B。
12．What’s the best title of the text?
A．Great Backyard Bird Count：A Strange Activity
B．Watching Birds Contributes to Students’ Education
C．Moira Dalibor：A Pioneer and Responsible Teacher
D．Great Backyard Bird Count Shows Power of Citizen Science
答案 D
解析 标题归纳题。通读全文尤其是第三段内容可知，文章主要介绍了“后院鸟类大统计”
这一活动，所以D选项“后院鸟类大统计显示了公民科学的力量”能概括全文内容，适合
用作文章标题。故选D。

Why are indoor plants good for you?
Will Spoelstra，who works at the Royal Botanic Gardens，says，“ 3 .I find during the
winter months，plants around the house can really lift your mood.” Several studies have backed
this up and found that indoor plants can improve creativity，focus and memory.There is also
research showing that pot plants can clean the air around them by removing harmful gases，such
as carbon dioxide.They also remove some harmful chemicals from paints or cooking. 4 .
Which plants can you grow?
Aloe vera，peace lilies and spider plants are some of the species that are easy to grow
indoors.You can buy plants from supermarkets，garden centres or online.Younger plants are often
cheaper than fully grown ones，and you get to care for them as they mature—which is part of the
joy of owning plants.“ 5 ，” Spoelstra says.“It can bring a new interest and focus into
